SIMULATION OF A SUBMARINE UNDER WAVES

A description is given of a numerical model for calculating the motion history of a submerged body under waves. The model uses simple Rankine sources distributed within the body to generate the disturbance potential. The model is also preliminarily validated, using both experimental and analytic data.
